2 Chainz Calls Tech N9ne A Major, Not Independent, Artist

    2 Chainz knows that Tech N9ne is an independent artist, but he doesn’t view him as such.

    “To me, this nigga major,” 2 Chainz says in a video taken from the Atlanta rapper’s recent show at The Midland Theater in Kansas City that was posted on Strange Music Inc’s YouTube page. “You already know I fuck with Tech N9ne. I know what he doing. I know how he getting’ money. I know how he keeping it humble. So it’s a blessing, you know, every time I come to the city, for a nigga like him, who be having crazy shows, to check out my show.”

    Earlier this month, 2 Chainz appeared on MTV’s Rap Fix and praised Tech N9ne’s skill on the mic.

    “That boy can rap, man,” 2 Chainz said during the show. “When I first did the cypher for the [2011 BET Hip Hop Awards]…I’m like, ‘Who gon’ be in the cypher?’ I promise to God, [Ludacris] said, ‘Busta Rhymes, Tech N9ne.’ All I was thinkin’ was Luda, Busta Rhymes and this fool – they gon’ be tongue twistin’ to see who can rap the fastest. But God worked it out where he got rid of [Tech].” 

    Tech N9ne performed in a different cypher for the Award Show, one that included Kendrick Lamar

    1. you know in 2014when a rapper thanks god an actual talent gets dropped from the cypher bc he will get embarrassed hiphop is fucked

    2. im from tech hometown and got to see his growth from the start, its a great thing to see how far hes came I totally recognize his skill level but his music is so “strange” lol I cant always rock with it but his old albums are dope and still go hard

      1. ^^ LOL TRUUUUUUE, fuck these niggaz nut huggin Tech N9ne, nigga ain’t did nothing different than half the niggas out there

    3. Tech Nine is independent making major money. Be sure to checkout thegrandreport, they have some good hip hop and viral videos on there too

    4. I like how he made more than Rick Ross last year but he doesn’t rap about his money on every song.

      1. even splitting his money with whitey he still made more than Ross and did it without completely selling the fuck out

      2. ^^^ A lot of half retarded people commenting on HipHopDX. Rick Ross works for more white people being in a major label then Tech does working his own independent label. I’m not going to get started on the fool who said he raps about the occult, because clearly he doesn’t listen too well so he isn’t going to understand me anyway. Can’t fix stupid.

    5. Tech is independent as they come, he’s major now but built himself and his label from the ground up.

    6. “even splitting his money he still made more than Ross”

      Ross spends more on dinner than Tech makes in a month.

      1. if thats true he will be sure to have money problems in the future as tech makes more, ross on mac miller’s level;

    7. tech been getting wack ass features on his projects ever since wayne bigged him up… KOD is his last project that i actually fuck with

      1. Hell yeah man. I feel that shit, he’s been fucking with mainstream “artists” that don’t even make good, real music.
